We love collaboration, and we lean into what makes us unique. Because that’s what HR is really all about: people.

A Commitment.
People415 believes our differences are what makes us exceptional. That’s why we’re committed to fostering and nurturing a work environment where diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) are fully integrated into everything we do — for the benefit of our team, our clients, and our communities. This means that we welcome and celebrate people for who they are, without equivocation.
DEIB is the foundation of all of our business decisions — including the candidates we hire, the vendors and partners we choose, and the clients that we work with. By making these values an essential part of our decision-making process, we aim to build an organization that attracts, inspires, and retains exceptional people. And we enthusiastically work with clients to do the same.
We prioritize DEIB internally to inform our approach to talent management, and continuously strive to improve our cultural competency, policies, and strategic goals to ensure alignment. We will continue to foster a culture where people are empowered to stand up for themselves and others to ensure that staff and clients—at all levels and locations—feel valued, respected, and included. And we commit to enforcing accountability for achieving progress towards these objectives whenever possible.
